What are you going to do with the .300 terminator?
The idea here is very novel indeed. I'm interested in seeing the results. N570 has done the best in my 30 nosler w/ 230s from a 26" barrel. I also run it in an xlr magnesium chassis. Ironically I have one the same actions as you, Mesa Crux ti. Proof sendero. The recoil(with a decent 5 port brake) is stout enough sometimes the magazine pops out the chassis when shooting prone with empty mag. Have also had 3 shots cause enough force thay the bottom of the accurate mag aics 3 round rum magazine to come off and the follower/spring were protruding out the mag body. I've thought about having my barrel +p throated. My freebore is 225, and with 230s, the bearing surface is still below the neck/shoulder junction.
I have a 5 port titanium from Ken........hows that 4 port of his? Hurry up and sell me one you stingy sob! LolSounds like you need a better brake. I had basically the same 30 Nosler build with a terminator brake didn’t have any mag issues.

Give us a call, we would love to go over any variables we can to help make sure this is not an issue.The idea here is very novel indeed. I'm interested in seeing the results.

Is Matt gonna chamber with a saami reamer, then send to Shawn for +p treatment? Curious what kind of freebore you're looking at in the end here.
Ryan, are you going to suppress it or will it always wear a brake?
Ryan, are you running ADG brass? That's pretty good speed for a new 20" pipe.Sorry, this has been slow.... But its hunting season. Got the call from Shawn that the rifle was done. @Unknown Munitions loaded me up some boolets. Jake and his crew are the best in the game!! He started at 85 grains of 570 and worked up to 88. At 88 grains I notice the slightest hint of an ejector mark. So that's where we will play. The three-shot group was just a tad over .5 and the ES was 12 with the three shots going 2908, 2920, and 2916. I am more than happy with Berger 215s velocity and will gain a little as the barrel settles in. Never been a fan of wasting bullets with a ladder test. Just get me to 5/8" or better and I am moving on. I will let the nerds waste time at 100 yards.
One other thing, the 'Muzzle Brake' is legit. The rifle weighs 7.5 pounds total and I was keeping the target in the FOV at 100 yards for the most part.
I will post some pic tomorrow. I hope to get her validated and hunting elk next week.

My 26" 30Nos runs to 3100 before ejector with H1000. I was kinda expecting 2900, especially with rocket fuel N570!Yes sir on the brass.
I was hoping for 2850. So I am really happy with the velocity.
